We’re Kira Systems. We’ve built machine learning software that enlightens the world’s enterprises by enabling them to truly know what’s in their contracts and documents. We’re deliberate in our decision making, clear on our mission and – most importantly – passionate about pairing the power of human know-how with a powerful product.

You will work with customers to uncover and document important, unmet needs, and work with one or more cross functional teams to advance our software. You collaborate with our Design, Research and Technology teams to bring new features to market. This role is responsible for the complete product lifecycle including developing and managing the roadmap, launching new features with Marketing, Sales and Support, planning on communicating new features to users, and gathering feedback to refine what’s been released.

Create and maintain roadmap of development priorities based on value and cost/benefit analysis
Contribute to product strategy through industry understanding, research of the market landscape, and evaluation of usage data
Understand market requirements and customer feedback in collaboration with our Customer Success and Sales teams
Work with a cross functional team (“Pod”) including Design, Development and QE to solution prioritized problems. Write and prioritize stories and requirements that define our roadmap, and constantly groom the backlog
Collaborate with the Design and Development teams to ensure quality User Experience
Work with our technical writing and our marketing teams to create documentation and other resources for customers
Manage launch plans, collaborating with our Product Marketing, Sales and Customer Success teams to determine launch schedules, and to create sales and support training material
Ultimately you are the driving force behind a multi-disciplinary product development process providing our customers true value and a great User Experience

5+ years experience in product management
Experience in B2B SaaS is preferred
Familiarity with natural language processing and machine learning is a plus but not required
